Member Count Stats?

GreatLife — Tue, 09 Jun 2026 17:57:25 GMT

Been a while since I've seen member count stats. Increasing or declining? Are forum members actively engaged or currently trend more toward newbies one n done then disappear?

Been way down for years. Come and ask questions and get their answers and then disappears. Likely how moderation happens now, reddit and also AI helping out to answer a lot of questions and we are where we are now. Just my 2 cents.

Current.member count is 84,220. It remains in decline but, at a much lower rate than 2024-2025 when a new policy triggered a purge of "inactive" members.

The inactivity threshold is 24 months based on my conversations with Fico personnel. Logins count as activity - posting not required as far as I know.

The member count has been slowly declining. Many people join, ask questions, and then don’t return, while active members continue to log in regularly.
